This simple song is fun for us to sing and play. It is about a work crew for the Mauna Kea Sugar Company on the Big Island of Hawaii. George knew the guys mentioned in the song when he lived in Hilo so the song has a personal connection for the band.

Snow in Hawaii 2012: Mauna Kea
Music: “NIBIRU” by Pasha iTunes: bit.ly Driving up Mauna Kea Hawaii 2012 was crazy and awesome. 30% less oxygen in the cold atmosphere makes it hard to breathe and move around, so a short hike to the peak at 13796ft was more challenging than anticipated. The snow cover was unpredictable with exposed and unexposed rocks. Some areas looked ridable! I could not resist the temptation to ride down the mountain on a bodyboard rental. Dangerous, but worth the thrill. (fine print: do not attempt)
